Bicycle

on the UCD campus

Busy times include 9AM and lunchtime. Watch where you're going, and look out for people who aren't paying attention! Pedestrians should be courteous and walk on sidewalks rather than in the bike lanes. If you're forced to walk in a bike lane, please try to keep to the right-most side. Such common courtesy is especially important when there are a lot of folks on the move.

Swarms of kids on bikes converge on the various Schools around town, especially the Junior High Schools. The busiest times are 7AM-8AM and ~3PM.

The numerous seemingly untimed stoplights on 5th Street, which turns into Russell Boulevard on the West side of town, contributes to what is probably the worst street traffic in Davis during commute hours. If you're trying to get across town during 8AM-9PM and/or 5PM-6PM, you might be better off using Covell Boulevard or Interstate 80 instead.
